Located in Southern Asia, Bangladesh is not only the eighth most populated country in the world, but also has one of the highest population densities. More than half of married women use modern methods of family planning (FP), and the maternal mortality ratio has improved over the last decade. According to the 2014 Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey (DHS), only 42% of births are attended by a skilled provider. Although this figure represents a significant improvement from the 2007 DHS (which showed that 18% of births were with a skilled provider), millions of women in Bangladesh are still at unnecessary risk of maternal morbidity and mortality when they deliver babies without a skilled provider.
